Kind regards ReginaI have in fact wondered what "Register true" was for, thanks for that info. The question that next comes up in my mind is, does anyone know where in the world did a "name" like that come from? If it were me naming that feature I would of called it something like... "Align Baselines". Is there a story or reason behind it? If it's not a good one, I vote for changing the name, because in 6 months or a year I'll have forgotten what it does (chances are slim I'll ever have to use that feature but still). I'm a big fan of naming things after their functions if and when it makes sense to do so. Thank you in advance.Use LO's help to search for this term. It answers your question. Hint, it has to do with how newspapers have been printed. --Dananne-ology wrote:Dan, you've been mis-informed re. newspapers.

It has noting to do with what predates what. Well you would know this if you had done your assignment. This term is in current use today.
So what is this strike 2, or is it strike 3, you're out? ;-) --Dan -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+help@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
